Wok (鑊), or rather the 炒锅 (Chǎo guō) in formal terms, is a versatile round-bottomed cooking vessel originating in China. It is used especially in Eastand Southeast Asia. Most often used for stir frying, woks can also be used in other Chinese cooking techniques, such as in steaming, pan frying, deep frying, poaching, boiling, braising, searing,stewing, smoking, making soup, roasting nuts or vegetables, or even fermenting rice wine. Very commonly seen in Chinese restaurants, it is a quite heavy cooking instrument.
